Dear Reader:
          	
          	I have had many questions about my Thirteenth House Series. Firstly, I love that so many of you are enjoying this series. Secondly, I know it is frustrating that you can no longer access the first book. I hate that piracy exists and that there are bad actors out there who go around stealing/copying authors' work and then publishing it for money on Amazon. They ruin it for everyone else.
          	
          	Good news, if you are still wanting to re-read the first book, or even read it for the first time, it will be published in early 2027 worldwide through Amazon and other book retailers. If you are financially unable to pay for a copy, I will be doing ARC teams. If you do not know what an ARC is, it is an advanced reader copy, meaning a copy that comes out to a select few individuals before the actual book releases. For anyone who is willing to leave a review of my book on public platforms like Goodreads and Amazon, you are eligible for a review copy. These are given out on an honor system. Meaning, that they will go to people who I know will genuinely leave me a review in exchange for a free ebook copy. 
          	
          	If you'd like to become an ARC reader for me, the best place to start is 1) signing up for my monthly newsletter on my website where I'll post announcements for Thirteenth House arcs around the end of the year/ early 2027. 2) make sure you have a review platform. Preferential treatment will be given to reviewers who review on both amazon and Goodreads. But I will be selecting a handful of readers who only have access to Goodreads (because Amazon has certain requirements). And make sure that on your Goodreads platform, you have evidence of reviewed books. If I see that you review other books on Goodreads then you are more likely to get a free copy from me. 
          	
          	The third way to access this book free will be once it publishes, using a Kindle Unlimited subscription. These monthly subscriptions are like Netflix. You can read whatever you want for free.

Hello,
          
          I just wanted to tell you how amazing your books are. I had the opportunity to read the entire *Dragonwall* series when it was available on Wattpad, and I absolutely loved it. I think I read the first two books more than once!
          
          Thank you so much for keeping the series on Wattpad for free for so many years. It gave readers like me the chance to discover your incredible writing, and I know that's something many authors don't do.
          
          I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your work with us and for being such a wonderful author. Your stories have brought me so much enjoyment, and I'm truly grateful I had the chance to read them.
          
          I'm also an author—although I've only recently started writing—and I have to say that you're a huge inspiration to me. Reading your books has motivated me to keep writing and to keep improving my craft. Thank you again for creating such wonderful stories, and I wish you all the best with your future books!

Hello!! Just want to start by saying - I am in LOVE with your writing! Thank you for sharing your imagination with the world! 
          My husband doesn’t like to read, but loves audiobooks books so when I saw the dragonwall series coming out on Audible, I jump right on it and my husband is now addicted  to the point that when Verath the Red audiobook came out, he stopped in the middle of a series he was listening to and had me purchase it for him immediately! 
          Sooo on behalf of my husband, do you know when the next audiobook will come out? 

addicted2dragons

@DananaBooks You are so very kind. I cannot thank you enough for the review. I have heard back from them about book 4 and they are currently in analysis phase. Basically they're looking at all the series numbers and determining if it's financially feasible / worthwhile for them. So hopefully I'll know in the next week or two. Fingers and toes crossed.

Yes, that is understandable! If reviews are what you need, I just did my part haha. If my husband and I didn’t share an audible account I’d rate it twice 
            
            P. S. My husband thought it was awesome that I messaged you and you responded - thank you for the update

@DananaBooks Aww you are so wonderful!! I love that you both can share the Dragonwall Series together. That means a lot to me. I'm waiting for the green light from my audiobook publisher (Podium Entertainment) to get approval for books 4 - 7. They wanted to see how the first 3 books did, understandably. Basically as long as the first three books sell and get lots of reviews and show that they are profitable for my publisher, they will do books 4 - 7 so I am keeping my fingers crossed. I hope to get approval from them soon!

I cannot find the rest of your Dragonwall Series aside from Talon the Black. What happened?

addicted2dragons

@lucid_llama Hello! The books were removed from Wattpad after 10 years of being free. They came down last year in June. They have moved to their forever home on Amazon / Kindle Unlimited. You can access the fully completed series on Amazon and read it free on Kindle Unlimited (with a monthly subscription / first month is free) or you can also purchase the ebook versions, or the paperback / hardcover versions, which you can find on either amazon or many world wide online book retailers :)

Do you have any advice for how to become a better writer? I'm trying to write my own story, and it's a little rough. I'm starting to get a little bit better, but if you have any advice I'd like to hear it.

addicted2dragons

@AustinGarn Yes! Please check out my new writers blog on my website. It's on authormelissamitchell.com under the new writers blog drop down menu :)

Hey, just wanted to let you know that there wasn't a notification that you've updated today. I went and read the chapter anyway because I know that sometimes it just doesn't notify, just thought I'd let you know. xx

addicted2dragons

@Ocean_Skye Thanks for the heads up! Sadly notifications are not something I can control. That's on Wattpad's end. I know they are often pretty glitchy. So my guess is their system was having glitches. Glad you go to read it though :)

Hey! Just noticed there wasn’t an update today since you’re usually so consistent. Hope everything’s okay — your chapters highlight my week :⁠-⁠)

addicted2dragons

@LizzieStars Phew! I panicked there for a second because I thought it was scheduled. Mini heart attack averted! Glad it was there :)

Hi! I’ve been away from Wattpad for so long, and I noticed that all the Dragon Series books have been removed. I’m sorry to hear that your work was pirated. I’ve been a fan and reader since your very first book, and I will only read from your official online platform.
          Are you still selling softbound copies of the Dragon Series? I would love to purchase them. I’ve always believed that real books last forever, so if something like this happens again, at least I’ll still have a reliable copy with me.

addicted2dragons

@Ceejelle You are so very kind! Welcome back! Yes, I am selling physical and ebook copies of the dragonwall series. You can get physical copies from amazon, or through my online website (authormelissamitchell.com) and you can get ebook copies on amazon and also read it free in kindle unlimited. Thank you so much for your support!!!
